Advantages: Breathtaking ruins in vivid jungle packed full of rainbow coloured birds and lively animals. Disadvantages: Violent crime awaits the unwary.
Far north in Guatemala?s El Petén State you will find this country?s must see attraction. Immense Mayan ruins that in 750 AD were once home to perhaps 100,000 people thrust up from the jungle floor and tower high above the steaming canopy. Toucans and parrots flicker through the twisted trees, monkeys bellow and battle and race, and daring coatis rush about in packs circling the day-trippers, eyeing up their picnics for a raid. Fat Petén Turkeys blunder along like drunk peacock gluttons, strutting and squealing amongst the ferns. At Tikal you find yourself surrounded not only by ancient history, but also by the crazy, thriving beauty of the natural world at its most forceful and vibrant.
The Tikal ruins were first seen by Europeans in the late 19th century, lead here by rubber farmers. What these first tourists saw were only ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Tikal (Guatemala)
Advantages: Easy application. Disadvantages: Won't work on really awful stains. Fishy smell.
Plus:- No scrubbing.
Minus:- Fishy stink. Doesn't work if your patio is REALLY bad. .
I'm doing the garden up at the moment. I go through phases of doing up the garden, it looks all nice for a while so I take my eye off the ball and before I know it, the weeds have taken over and it looks a complete mess again.
Anyway, I'm currently busy growing fruit, veg, herbs and so forth aswell as re-painting the fence panels and shed, putting slate chips hither and thither and then I realized how skanky the patio slabs and little border walls were looking. Some were their original creamy stone colour and others were various shades of green to grayish-black. In the past I've set to with hot water, disinfectant and a stiff broom?..and got covered in nasty flick-back so when I saw a bottle of Patio Magic for sale in Wilkinsons for £7 ...
Advantages: EXCELLENT FRESH PRODUCE COOKED VERY WELL Disadvantages: NONE
When in Tavira you fancy a very enjoyable meal out then visit the O PATIO RESTAURANT.
LOCATION:-
Find the OLD ROMAN BRIDGE, not difficult, then with your back to the Open Air Theatre cross the bridge, on the opposite side just continue straight down the little street facing you, about 50 yards on the right hand side is O PATIO RESTAURANT.
You enter by the door and prceed up the Staircase. You will pass a chilled display of the Fresh Caught Today fish on offer.
In the restaurant is another chilled display of the Meat on offer.
There is a small bar and then tables in Three Areas (rooms). There is also a Open Air Patio that must be delightful in the Summer. Pity we only seem to visit Tavira in the Winter, although it is still warm.
What I Like is the Tables are Large, which is a big plus when the Food and Drinks come ...
